Mueda, Memória e Massacre
Ruy Guerra
1979, 80’
A reenactment by the Mueda community of the massacre on June 16th. On this day in 1960, it was the first moment when the community confronted Portuguese imperial authorities, demanding independence for their land, which led to the deaths of those who protested at the hands of the Portuguese authorities. Since then, the community has gathered annually to reenact the massacre, allowing younger generations to perform the acts of resistance of their ancestors.
